Casey Gray

Casey Gray is an esteemed artist based in San Francisco known for his distinctive style that seamlessly blends classical painting traditions with modern day materials and methods. First and foremost a still life painter but often delving into other common subject matter, Gray's visually striking compositions use the language of symbolism to explore themes of leisure, connection, shared experience and the search for balance. His process employs acrylic spray paint as his predominant medium coupled with meticulous hand-cut masking techniques resulting in boldly colorful, energetic and elegant artworks that mimic the nuanced and paradoxical blend of analog and digital influences. 

 

Born and raised in the Bay Area, Gray earned a BA from San Diego State University in 2006 before completing his MFA at the San Francisco Art Institute in 2010. His work has been showcased nationally and internationally in numerous exhibitions and art fairs and resides in public and private collections worldwide.
